I have had the synthetic version for a year now. Have had one stovepipe after 600 rounds or so. Have shot multiple competitions with it and have scored in the top 25% every time and am beyond happy. I added a pic rail and a vortex crossfire 1-4x24 with illuminated reticle. She’s a perfect little around the farm gun with 124gr Hornady XTPS and 15 round Barretta mags
I've got several WWII surplus m1 carbines, they are just about my favorite rifle. I'm excited about trying this 9mm version, as .30 carbine ammo has gotten pricey, and I don't shoot have anywhere more than 100 yards I can shoot, so the bullet drop is not too much of an issue.
Question, do beretta magazines fit in the m1 carbine mag pouch? I picked up one of these rifles the other day for $350 second hand and absolutely am in love. Originally got it for my dad cause he loves the old esthetics but neither one of us want to spend what 30 cal goes for now. I don’t love the plastic barrel band so I picked up a repro metal one along with new rear sight since it was missing and I hear chiappas rear sight from factory can be very loose.
Everyone who has had one of these has had nothing but trouble. I was looking at one when taofledurmaus did a video on his. Saved me a pretty good chunk of money. It would be awesome to have an M1 carbine in 9mm. Hopefully they have improved them over the last 5+ years. Please keep us updated on how it goes. I would love to see if this ends up holding up over time.
Mine has been nothing but great. Functioned perfectly right out of the box. Put maybe 100 rounds through it with zero jams or misfires. Maybe don't say "Everyone" when you have no idea what you're talking about?
Mine has been nothing but fun. I have made many coons an coyotes lose their soul because of mine. Plus, it has never failed me in competitions. Then even adding a new folding stock wasn't that bad.
I think I will purchase one sooner or later... I've been looking at this model since 2015 or so, when it was released, and in the dozens of videos I watched, the main reason of malfunction seems to be related to magazines, perhaps with the good original Beretta magazines I have I will non have any trouble
With 124 or higher grain ammo and factory or Barrera magazines and not cheap shitty promags, it works fantastic. They also did improve the quality of it on recent units, as things like the sights are no longer plastic. My only issue with it is that its a bitch to clean.
@@Rickfrom406 they say never meet your heroes. I hope when you get an opportunity it is a well sorted out taken care of unit with quality 30 cal and good magazines.

That sounds like a nice little setup. I already sold this off but if another one comes up i'd play with the thought of owning it again.
That is cool that it takes Beretta magazines
It is a pretty good selling point if you're a fan of the 92 style guns

It was a ton of fun and one of the few guns I wish I'd have kept. There's always the next one though

They don't unfortunately
I didn't realize they made a 9mm m1 that's cool. I'll need to see if they have one that takes glock mags
Is it really a pistol caliber carbine if it doesn't take Glock mags
They do not.
^he's right, they only make the M9 version sadly. If you want a fun gun that can take Glock mags, try the Ruger PC carbine or charger.
@@MymMars M9 isn't bad either and you can go high cap mags for them to
jams
Preserves
Gun has a 200rd break in period. Id personally shoot 100 clean it and shoot another 100 and it will be fine.
Read the owners manual before operating 😂

I have had great luck with mine, usually I end up with a lemon but mines been great

But will it take glock mags and if not why the hell not
More like an old 30 😮cal
DONT KNOW IF IT IS ON SAFÈ OR NOT...WTF...😢
It’s a turd
Everyone enjoys different guns. It's a viable option if you don't want to shell out the money for an antique gun with limited ammo selection.
I still hate the m1 carbine
I totally get that. I've never shot a real M1 but i'd like to someday
